Psalm 67
1. A prayer for the enlargement of God's kingdom
3. to the joy of the people
6. and the increase of God's blessings














God blesses us
This phrase emphasizes the divine favor and provision bestowed upon the people of God. In the context of ancient Israel, blessings often included prosperity, peace, and fertility of the land, as seen in Deuteronomy 28:1-14. The concept of blessing is deeply rooted in the Abrahamic covenant, where God promises to bless Abraham and his descendants (Genesis 12:2-3). This blessing is not only material but also spiritual, signifying God's presence and favor. Theologically, it reflects God's grace and mercy, underscoring the idea that blessings are not earned but given by God out of His love and faithfulness.

that all the ends of the earth
This phrase points to the universal scope of God's plan and the inclusivity of His blessings. It echoes the promise to Abraham that through his offspring, all nations of the earth would be blessed (Genesis 22:18). Geographically, "the ends of the earth" refers to the farthest reaches of the known world, indicating that God's influence and blessings are not limited to Israel but extend globally. This foreshadows the Great Commission in Matthew 28:19, where Jesus commands His disciples to make disciples of all nations, highlighting the mission to spread the knowledge of God worldwide.

shall fear Him
The fear of the Lord is a recurring theme in Scripture, often associated with reverence, awe, and worship rather than terror. In Proverbs 9:10, it is stated that "the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom." This fear is a recognition of God's holiness, power, and justice, leading to obedience and worship. Historically, the fear of God was a distinguishing mark of the Israelites, setting them apart from surrounding nations. In a prophetic sense, this phrase anticipates a time when all nations will acknowledge and revere God, as seen in Revelation 15:4, where all nations will come and worship before Him. This reverence is ultimately fulfilled in Jesus Christ, who embodies the wisdom and power of God, drawing all people to Himself through His sacrificial love and resurrection.

Teaching Points
God's Blessings as a Witness
God's blessings are not just for personal benefit but serve as a testimony to His goodness and power, encouraging others to revere Him.

Global Mission
Believers are called to participate in God's mission to reach all nations, reflecting His desire for all people to know and fear Him.

Fear of the Lord
The fear of the Lord is a reverent awe and respect for God, recognizing His authority and majesty. It is a response to His blessings and character.

Interconnectedness of Blessing and Mission
God's blessings are intertwined with His mission; as we are blessed, we are empowered to share His love and truth with others.

Stewardship of Blessings
We are stewards of the blessings God gives us, using them to further His kingdom and bring others to a knowledge of Him.Verse 7. - God shall bless us; or, "may God bless us" (Kay, Cheyne); but the form is identical with that used in ver. 6. And all the ends of the earth shall fear him. One day the earth shall be full of the knowledge and fear of the Lord "as the waters cover the sea" (Isaiah 11:11).
